Corexy A/B steppers move when Z moves up or down...
-
Can you post your entire config file?
Any other details on the problem would help as well. Like does the XY work normally (no Z motion?), how are you commanding the Z moves, etc.
-
Hey @nhof All movements are being requested through DWC2. If i try to move the XY axis individually they move fine. Its when i request any Z movement on DWC2 that the XY steppers move as well.
Here is my config.g

I also noticed that I had driver 2 (the dual Z stepper output on the Duet 2 defined as extruder 3
M584 X0 Y1 Z5:6:7:8 E3:4:2 ; Set Drive Mappingso i changed it to this
M584 X0 Y1 Z5:6:7:8 E3:4 ; Set Drive MappingIf I unplug the XY steppers and only request a Z axis movement I get an error about drivers 0 and 1 not being connected properly. Seems like somewhere something is messing up the axis assignment? Also even thought the X and Y move when the Z does, it seems like the Z axis raised/lowers by different amounts which makes me think that the steps/mm are also incorrect somehow.
-
Assume you are overriding the homing requirement with M564? Any homing script or similar which might mess with the axis mapping? (such as a Z home script)?
Also try moving the
M584line to the first line of your config. Shouldn't make a big difference but some g-codes have to be set in the config in a specific order.When you say the Z raises/lowers by different amounts do you mean inconsistent motion with the same command?
Such as: I command Z+5 move, Z moves up by 2mm. I command another Z+5 move, Z moves up by 13mm.
or: I command Z+5 move, three of the screws move 5mm, one screw moves 2.3mm.
or similar
-
" I command Z+5 move, three of the screws move 5mm, one screw moves 2.3mm" is what happens. Its belt driven on the Z but mechanically and belt tension look ok.
I just tried using M584 H0 and then tried some moves... what do you know the XY steppers dont move. Why is that? I tried it with another config.g that is very close to what I have... mostly just format changes and it worked when entering G92 X0 Y0 Z50 and then requested movement.
-
Do both XY motors move when Z is commanded or just one? If just one it will move on a diagonal only.
Did you try M564 or M584? M564 changes behavior of homing (allows/blocks axis moves before homing) while M584 will remap your axis. If you called M584 H0 it might unassign driver0 from X which would stop it from moving.
M564 H0 will cause the printer demand that you home axes before movement.
-
I figured out the reason my one Z was not moving the same distance as the other 3... wrong GT2 tooth count lol. If i start the printer from a fresh power up and send G92 X0 Y0 Z0 so it thinks XYZ are homed at 0,0,0 and command a Z movement both the XY motors move. Not sure if their direction is correct as I dont have my X gantry on. If from a fresh power up i send M564 H0 and move the Z axis, it moves correctly and the XY steppers do not move.
-
I found the culprit.... and it seems to cause RRF to glitch. It had to due with my axis min and max in the follow gcode:
M208 X-175 Y150 Z0 S1 ; Set axis min (X350/Y300/Z300)
M208 X175 Y-150 Z300 S0 ; Set axis max (X350/Y300/Z300)You can see the my min and max Y are reversed. I noticed that when I moved the Z axis and the XY motors moved the Y coordinate would with be 150 or -150, no values in between, @dc42 could there be a checked implemented for this?
-
@nikker Interesting. IIRC another user reported unexpected behavior with unusual M208 values recently as well. Glad it's solved at least.
-
@nikker said in Corexy A/B steppers move when Z moves up or down...:
@dc42 could there be a checked implemented for this?
Yes, I'll add a check. Unfortunately, error messages generated when config.g is run are often not seen by the user.
